EBTN Accreditation Committee

The EBTN Accreditation Committee has a dual role:
-The technical decision on Triple E accreditation for a qualification, and
-The re-promotion of Triple E Standard.
It consists of 7 Members: 5 internal members (all members of BOD) and 2 external members that are independent of providers of training and/or qualifications.
The technical decision on Triple E accreditation for a qualification is vested in an independent body, the Triple E Committee. This accreditation committee reports directly to the EBTN Board of Directors.
The Triple E Committee consists of 2 external members and 1 EBTN representative who chairs the committee. On request the Triple E Committee can be supported by an independent external expert concerning the content of the qualification. The externa l members are independent of providers of training and/or qualifications.

The Triple E Committee evaluates if the application meets the requisites provided in the guidelines for a Triple E qualification as described in EBTN’s Triple E Standard. Applications are based on self-evaluation performed by an applicant, using the accreditation application form. The main task of the Triple E Committee is the assessment of applications for a Triple E accreditation. Based on this assessment report the Triple E Committee takes the technical decision regarding the accreditation of the qualification. Eventually the EBTN Board of Directors has to approve this decision.

The Triple E Committee is also responsible for the (re-)accreditation of Triple E EFCB.

The Accreditation Committee consists of 8 Members: 6 internal members (all members of BoD) and 2 external ones. The external members of the Committee are independent providers of training and/or qualifications and assist the Committee as Independent Experts for the Review of the EBTN Accreditation applications.
